Kronkite was a prototype newsreader app that would speak back aggregated content from the web in a natural and realistic sounding news broadcaster's voice. The app's design focused on a "set it and forget it" hands-free experience.
Users set up their listening preferences once, set a timer, and Kronkite would prep content to read back for that set amount of time.
Kronkite's target user was the person who wanted to listen to news bulletins before or during their commute, allowing them to listen to the news without worrying about downloading audio files.
